A money box contains only 10-cent and 20-cent coins. There are 40 coins with a total value of $6.50. How many coins of each?

Let's assume that all the coins are 10-cent coins.

The total value would be 10 x 40 = 400 cents = $4

So, it would be $2.5 less than the actual total value,

We now know that not all the coins are 10-cent coins, so now we will replace 1 10-cent coins with a 20-cent coins.

Everytime we switch a 1 10-cent coins to a 20-cent coins, the value go up 10 cents. So, we need to switch 25 times (to make the value goes up $2.5)

-> There are 25 20-cent coins and 15 10-cent coins

Recheck : 25 x 20 + 15 x 10 = 500 + 15 = 650 cents = $6.5

From the table below, determine whether the data shows an exponential function. Explain why or why not.

Ierofanga [76]

X        Δx                                 y             Δy

3                                               1

1        1 - 3 = - 2                        2             2 - 1 = 1

-1        -1 - 1 = -2                      3            3 - 2 = 1

-3        -3 - (-1) = -2                  4               4 - 3 = 1

So, as you see y in increasing in regular constant intervals, when x also increases in regular constant intervals. => Δy / Δx = constant.

That is the result of a linear function, not an exponential one.

So, the true statement is given by the option <span>(A) No; the domain values are at regular intervals and the range values have a common sum 1. </span>
